I own a terraced Victorian property in Wellingborough. Conveyancing solicitor represented me and Barnsley Building Society. I did a free Land Registry search last week and I saw a couple of entries: one for freehold, the second leasehold under the exact same address. Is it worth asking Barnsley Building Society to clarify?

You need to assess the Freehold register you have again and check the Charges Register as there may be mention of a lease. The best way to be sure that you are also the registered owner of the leasehold and freehold title as well is to check (£3). It is not completely unheard of in Wellingborough and other locations in the country and poses no real issues for owners other than when they mortgage they have to account for both freehold and leasehold interests when dealing with mortgage companies. You can also question the position with your conveyancing practitioner who conducted the purchase.

I have been on the look out for a ground for flat up to £245,000 and found one near me in Wellingborough I like with a park and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 51 years on the lease. There is not much else in Wellingborough for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a lease with such few years left?

If you need a home loan that many years will likely be an issue. Reduce the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if not already taken into account. If the current proprietor has owned the premises for a minimum of 2 years you could request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. An additional ninety years can be extended on to the current lease with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing solicitor concerning this.

Given that I will soon spend £400,000 on a two bedroom apartment in Wellingborough I would like to talk to a conveyancer regarding thehouse move in advance of giving the go ahead to the firm. Is this something that you can arrange?

In my capacity as executor for the estate of my father I am disposing of a residence in Swansea but I am based in Wellingborough. My solicitor (based 260 kilometers awayhas requested that I sign a statutory declaration prior to the transaction finalising. Could you suggest a conveyancing practitioner in Wellingborough to attest this legal document for me?

Technically speaking you should not be required to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or qualified solicitor will suffice regardless of whether they are located in Wellingborough
